For my pillow I chose skull #1 stencil and decided to do a bleached-out pillow. Guys...when I had this pillow in mind, I was totally thinking Rock n' Roll 90's vibe. Haha.

Before you read any further, please take note that this project uses bleach and bleach dangerous. If you plan to attempt to recreate this project do it in a well ventilated area away from anything you do NOT want to get bleach on. This project can get messy and prior to going all out on this, please test the technique on some scratch fabric FIRST.

I would have love to provide you with picture for every step BUT this project was extremely messy and I had to try a couple of different bleach methods in order for my vision to come alive.

cut your fabric to your desired size and lay your stencil on top of it. Tape it down if needed, but make sure that it stays still while working on this project

Dip you sponge in bleach without soaking it and dab it on the part of the stencil that you want to bleach out. If you decide to soak your sponge, the bleach will spread like water on an unleveled counter. To get the outlined skull edge lift up the part of the skull pattern that is detachable and pat the bleach sponge around the edge.

You can either keep it as is or to get a scattered sprayed bleach look, remove your stencil and fill your spray bottle up with bleach and spray the bleach on the pillow and that is it.

When you really think about it, this tutorial is pretty simple and thanks to Cutting Edge StencilI was able to get the look I was going for.

I remember being like, 10 and wanting bleached jeans. I found a "how to" in my teen magazine and honest to god, nothing worked. I had like, bleach proof jeans and I was so mad. This totally reminded me of that!

What a fun way to add a touch of Halloween to any household! It could be lots of fun to have seasonally-decorated pillows that you can remove from the pillow form and change out at will. Easy to store, fun to design and make! Thanks! (My mom loves #10—anything cat!)
